The tabs are ok (simple, useful, and well know for the "average" user).
But more issues.
- Colors: The colors of the tabs (1 and 2) are light blue and dark blue.
Is that enough? Why not something more evident? Also the light grey is so light
in most laptops screens is invisible.
- Names: Web | Images | Groups | Directory
What means "web"? Are "groups" outside "web", or "web" means "all the web"?
When I am searching in the "web" I am not searching "images"?
What's the difference from "web" and "directory"?
What's next, MP3, media, news, domains...? Where are the PDFs?
If we are thinking in the "average" user those names are a bit on the edge.
Also, the "groups" tab is more about reading and posting messages in a "sign
in" system. Why there is no such clear information about this section? And
again, are the "groups" outside "web"?
Also, those groups are only "google's groups"? what about yahoo groups...? The
way is presented looks like there is stuff about the web and stuff about google
mixed in the same level, is that ok?
Consistency:
The tabs in the home page are wide and over the search box. In the results page
are presented like a cluster and above the search box.
